    2016 Impala - After taking it to Chevy for diagnosis, they said it was short in the compressor and $2300 to fix. I didn't buy it. Air was blowing hot at red lights non stop. Eventually was toggling ac on and off for about a month to get it to kick on. After watching this video, I fixed the problem. I didn't have a matching AC Relay to swap so I took out the relay and put it back in. I still can't believe it, but I've had no issues since I did that. Going on 4 days now. THANK YOU!!!!

    Mmm when you were checking the voltage at the connector you left the clip on the positive side of the battery so you were checking ground not voltage. That's still fine actually because you also have to check ground too as well as battery voltage. Repeat the same thing tho just take the lead and put it to the negative side. You won't get voltage right away that's fine you would turn on the car and everything along with AC to get voltage that way. The safest way would be a bi-directional scanner that can turn the clutch on then do the test. I use a test light on ground it's easier for me that way. Still great video on AC it's nice to see a video that can help people with this topic ac is nice in your car especially when it's like 105 out and also humid. Like where I live and seeing the comments this vid is doing wonders for everyone. Hope it racks like all the views x3.

    It was 104 degrees at noon when my neighbor asked me to look at his non-functioning a/c. He's an old retired pastor and needed to drive a long way later that day. I was sure I wouldn't be able to fix it for him that day, but I took a look at it. As sweat rolled off me I lost track of what I was testing, but somehow I concluded it was just the relay for the compressor clutch. It's awesome to feel like the hero once in a while!

    Great video, but no mention of a repeatedly blowing fuse, which sends power from relay to compressor. This is a common problem, usually caused by a short in the clutch, and should be one of the first things checked.

    • @veng9824
      @veng9824 Před rokem

      Repeatedly blown fuses are due to magnetic coil behind the clutch is short.
      Clutch not engaged sometime due to magnetic coil is broken open - using ohmeter sound continuity connected to ground and magnetic coil wire to hear a beeping sounds proving it is good.

    • @veng9824

      ​@@proclaimliberty2000hi, I have a question but I can't comment? That's why I'm on the reply, I told a mech is was blowing got, they checked and said my compressor is shot. Will any of these work? Should I get a 2nd opinion?
